The GraDAna is a cross-national project bringing together higher education institutions (HEIs) and SMEs. It aims at curriculum development and staff training on the topic of data analytics.

The project improves the entrepreneurship and employability of HE graduates by elevating their competencies in the emerging field of Data Analytics (DA). Involved European partners have outstanding backgrounds in Data Analytics and related disciplines. GraDAna transfers know-hows, experiences, and best practices to HEIs through its sustainable international university-enterprise cooperation plans.

GraDAna aims at:

  • Exploiting potentials in science and industry as a “terra incognita”
  • Improving entrepreneurship, employability, and competitiveness of graduates through modernized training in DA and related disciplines
  • Addressing “Governmental Policies on Developing Strategies to Support VET for HE Graduates”
  • Proving the extrovert, multicultural and collaborative EU approach to globalization
  • Sharing European expertise from internationally renowned HEIs
  • Inclusion of regional business/industry stakeholders in the project events.
